Safety concerns

On Saturday the Somali Parliament approved of a Martial Law to be imposed in the Horn. A day later and it is bedlam throughout the capital. A sort of guerrilla warfare has taken root, just as we expected. And if the president is still intent on disarming the entire Somali population, whilst Ethiopian troops live in our midst, then maybe its high time he mulled over his imprudent certitude . It is foolish to think that the Somali people can be disarmed or should be even expected to disarm whilst enemy soldiers freely move around the capital in convoys of military trucks! As long as Ethiopian soldiers are free to roam in Somalia, there will be no calm and tranquillity from these deadly attacks

All we wish for is a respite from the strife that’s tearing us apart, but that won’t be possible with the Ethiopians’ inflammatory presence. What needs to be considered here is the safety of the people; they do not feel safe with Ethiopians in their country, and the move by the government to disarm the militia is simply bound to rouse the commoners. By taking away their guns, their safety is at stake, and that is something they are not willing to compromise for anything! So we’re back to where we started…

The image of those boys’ bodies is heart breaking. May they find peace and mercy where they are now and may their mothers and fathers find solace. Isn’t it absolutely criminal to have Ethiopian soldiers disarming and terrorizing Somalis with the approval of the sham government? They want to be the only ones terrorizing people and holding their peace and future hostage indefinitely.

Aya, Good news. Some of them have withdrawn from places such as beledweyn and its surroundings. The rest are expected to withdraw too in the coming weeks. I hope, that they all withdraw Insha-Allah, though i believe the African troops wouldn’t be of much good either. Ameen!
